Hmmm, that is some interesting stuff there. I don't see them trawling out high quality SA figures for $7.99. Guessing these will be 5 POA, let the rioting commence.

Hopefully it'll be somewhere between the two extremes... They sold the reduced articulation as a way to cut prices, then over the course of the first year or so, the price creeps up by a third. They could just have a little more to them without being SA figures... maybe better accessories?

Ah okay - when I hear 'getting a knee scoped' I think of it as like a quick procedure to clean some stuff up that costs guys like 3 weeks - that seems to be what it usually is in the NFL at least.

As for the timetable, I don't think anything's official and what I read was that they'd have more information after the surgery - but it was a meniscus tear to the same knee that cost Rose like 70 games last season, so I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's done for the year.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the guy retired... this is getting old as ****, I can only imagine how he feels.
